DESCRIPTION
The first official sequel to an existing Final Fantasy game, Final Fantasy X-2 continues the story of Yuna as she and two female companions set off on a combat-filled adventure to rescue hero Tidus from captivity. Taking place two years after Yuna's epic battle with Sin, the game also stars Riku and a new character named Paine. Once again actresses Hedy Burress and Tara Strong reprise their roles as Yuna and Riku, respectively, and are joined by Gwendoline Yeo as the voice of Paine. While many of the settings will be familiar to Final Fantasy X players, albeit expanded upon in certain areas, a number of changes have been made to the core game engine.
The Sphere Grid used to build a character's class has been replaced with a job system that has characters instantly switching between roles during battle. Jobs are represented by costumes, with each transformation influencing a character's hit points and abilities. Yuna, no longer aided by the powerful spirits known as Aeons, has learned the fine art of pop singing, which can lull enemies into a daze long enough for others to attack. The turn-based battle system used in Final Fantasy X has also been dropped in favor of "Active Time Battle" found in previous installments. The game's structure has changed as well, with players being given a series of missions to undertake in any order instead of following a scripted path towards the conclusion. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide

“This had the potential I think to be a good game. It's far more visually appealing than FFX, and I feel the combat system was better as well. The story line is good. It's involving and it transitions nicely from this game's predecessor. I feel the major problem that this game has is that it is a metaphorical iceberg. Following the main story is only 15-20% of the game. In order to obtain the rest you have to frequently scroll through the list of locations and just keep revisiting them.”

“Like it more than FFX. "What?" you say? I hear your how-dare-you's, and see your pitchforks and torches, but hear me out. This game felt 100 times more interactive than the boa-like constriction of FFX. Story points, real-time battle,...”
“Like it more than FFX. "What?" you say? I hear your how-dare-you's, and see your pitchforks and torches, but hear me out. This game felt 100 times more interactive than the boa-like constriction of FFX. Story points, real-time battle, and a class system just as customizable (and not half as abusable) made this one really stand out. Oh, and Yuna grows some stones. Which was awesome.”

“If FFX can be compared to jumping out of a 30th floor window, then X-2 would be if you hit the ground AND CONTINUED FALLING!”

“Have (still) not finished it completely. I like the cosume/job idea but that also makes it kind of a hazzle. Especially when you want to have all maxed out and have all stuff for all - just like I want it. Man that takes time!”

“This is just like FF X only with strippers and Barbie and Charlie's Angels and a really really really stupid plot. You could have given me an opening cutscene where Yuna reunites with Tidus and saved me the trouble of playing through this slog.”

“I liked this game more than most people. Is it the best FF game. NO. Is it well made? NO. But it is a twist on the typical FF game. The costume changes add a level of strategy that some other RPG's lack. It is light hearted and meant to be funny”
